2 Verbos The verb as it appears in the dictionary is called the infinitive In Spanish there are 3 verb endings AR (hablar – to speak) ER (comer – to eat) IR (vivir – to live) Spanish verbs are either regular 85% or irregular (do not follow the rules) 15%. Some verbs are Radical Changing – this means they follow the regular rules but they have some spelling differences

ÚSTED (vd.) WE (NOS)OTROS YOU (pl) (VOS)OTROS THEY ELLOS THEY (f) ELLAS YOU FORMAL (pl) ÚSTEDES (vds.)
